An implant being urged to be positioned between the thyroid cartilage (22)
and a vocal cord (20) so as to displace the latter in order to restore
the speech to a patient, characterized in that it comprises: i) a
"prosthesis" (3) being urged to rest on the muscle of the vocal cord
(20), ii) a "counterplate" (5) resting on the internal wall of the
thyroid cartilage (22), and iii) a liking element (7) of the prosthesis
(3) and the counterplate (5),said counterplate (5) being mobile on said
at least one linking element (7), thus enabling the adjustment of the
distance D between the prosthesis (3) and the counterplate (5) to
maintain the implant (1) in place.
